One of the biggest compliments our clients can give us is by sharing their experiences with others. Here, we’ve featured testimonials from some of our most valued clients. Read about their situations and how we worked diligently to defend their rights and help them receive the outcomes they deserved.

My name is Lyle Galeener and I worked for a company that wasn’t paying wages like they should. I received a class action lawsuit. I come to discover that there was over a thousand employees that weren’t being payed properly. So I joined the bandwagon, got in with Kennedy Hodges. They came in and just cleaned house. I mean they were phenomenal, they did an awesome job.
They got us back the wages that we needed. I’m very, very happy with the outcome. It couldn’t have been any better. I couldn’t see myself going through anyone else. These guys weren’t there just for the money, they really seemed to care about each and every individual that was involved in this. No matter when I needed to get a hold of them for anything, they were always there.
And I would highly recommend them to anybody else that had a problem, whether it be a class action lawsuit or whatever else these attorneys might deal with. I would choose them well over anyone else. I appreciate what they did. I’m very, very thankful.
Thank you so much Galvin and all the attorneys that I got to meet. Wonderful experience. You guys take care and God bless.

After working for a metal manufacturing company for a few months I found out they owed me overtime. I was surprised because I had no idea I had to be paid that money. Lots of people just trust their employers to pay them right but you can't let that happen because they will try to get away with not paying you. If you're owed money call this firm.

"I would like to open with a much appreciated "Thank you" to you for your professionalism and prompt attention regarding this settlement matter. If it was not for Mr. Vargas stepping up and obtaining your law firm services, honest working citizens like myself and Mr. Vargas would not receive our deserved compensation. I just wanted to express my gratitude to you and the law firm you work for. Please forward this letter to your superiors.
You made it your mission, without fail, to track me down and make it known that I have a much deserved reimbursement from my previous place of employment. I know I am not an easy person to contact (track down) because I have moved a lot, changed my contact numbers, and I am never on one place for a long period of time. Thank you for your diligent efforts in trying to locate my whereabouts so that I can receive my part of the settlement verdict. Also, when you asked me to fill out the "Trident Final Disbursement Sheet", you did not hesitate to send my check when I returned the form. I received the check the very next day. Please forgive me for taking your valuable time in reading this letter of appreciation. Thank you again."

"Thank you for your professionalism, your hard work, and your dedication. I can't say how much I am glad I called this firm! They got me everything I was owed from an employer I knew was paying me wrong. They said the case might take some time but in the end it was definitely worth the wait to get what I was owed!"

"I never thought I would have to hire a lawyer about what my employer was doing. A lot of people said it wasn't worth it to get an attorney but I would've missed out on a lot if I hadn't called their firm! They are professional but laid back. I definitely recommend them."

"Nobody ever wants to have to get a lawyer to get your pay back from your boss but sometimes I guess you have no choice. Call Galvin and Rick they have handled these cases a lot and they are honest about your case."

"If you need a lawyer to get back your lost pay, call Kennedy Hodges. They sat down with me, went through my pay stubs, and when they showed me how much I was really owed for all those years I couldn't believe it! I felt so cheated! But they got me through this case and I am so glad I gave them a call! I would recommend this firm to everyone."

"I'm glad I called Kennedy Hodges. My employer wasn't paying me overtime and I knew that was wrong. I found this firm on the Internet. They immediately went to work on my case. The lawyers and the staff took care of everything and they taught me about my case and kept me updated on everything.
The lawyers at Kennedy Hodges know what they're doing and they helped me get the overtime pay my employer owed me.
I'm very happy with my recovery. I would hire them again, and I would recommend them to anyone who has problems with overtime pay with their employer. They take care of their clients. I'm glad I found them."

I wanted to express my gratitude to the lawyers that worked on the Scarlett’s Cabaret case. I wanted to explain my purpose for opening up this case. At first, I knew there was something seriously wrong with what I was experiencing in the adult entertainment industry when I worked at Scarlett’s in 2011-2013. I became aware of the rights that were being violated, but as the case continued, I've learned that it was much more serious than just fair labor law rights.
When I started the Facebook private group page and two groups messaging threads, I started to interact with the class members and discovered a deeper problem. Some class members discussed with me the issue with sex trafficking in the Adult Entertainment Industry. As the media articles started circulating, numerous organizations and activists supporting fellow representatives, the class members, and myself contacted me.
The biggest dilemma is that people don’t really understand the scope of human/sex trafficking aka Modern Slavery. Melissa Farley Ph.D., from UCLA and Executive Director of Prostitution Research & Education released a case study and emailed it to me. View the full case study here.
This is why I've been so passionate about this case because it's bigger than just labor law rights.

I’m a military retiree who had a brief (2 month) experience with [a lawn care employer]. While they were horrible, that experience was partially what motivated me to go back to school and pursue my education. Now, I’m two months from graduating as an RN. Thanks for the motivation, [employer]!! Thanks again Don Foty, for taking this case.
